Abstract Understanding the mechanism that leads to immune dysfunction in severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is crucial for development of effective treatment. Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing, we characterized peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from uninfected controls and COVID-19 patients paired broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF). We found a close association decreased dendritic (DCs) increased monocytes resembling myeloid-derived suppressor (MDSCs), which...
